Bergamot, Patchouli & Rose de mai
20.0% Perfume Concentration
A brilliant bouquet of rose de mai, orchid and jasmine combines with fresh citrus notes from bergamot and lemon. A base of patchouli, musk and sandalwood give a familiar and poised finish to this bright citrus floral perfume. The emerald green colour of the bottle reflects the original bottles of the Crown Perfumery Company – the perfect tribute for a perfume that pays tribute to the year the crown was granted by Queen Victoria to adorn every bottle.

top notes: Bergamot
Oil distilled from the juice of a hundred Bergamot Oranges delivers cascades of sunlight to every corner of this complex, sumptuous fragrance. Citrus notes are interspersed with the sugary elixir of Pineapple and Blueberry.
heart notes: Rose de Mai
Jubilant florals compose a rich and sensuous middle. Soft, velvety petals from 170 Rose de Mai flowers make up each drop, joining a heady mix of Osmanthus, Jasmine, Purple Violet, Freesia, Orchid and Lily of the Valley.
base notes: Patchouli
Woodland base notes evoke England’s pastoral heritage, rousing the inner nymph. Warm, earthy notes of Patchouli and hand-harvested Oak Moss combine with Sandalwood, Cedar Wood and Musk
